‘Possessed’ murder suspect ‘ate man’s face, eyeball and ear’ after killing him

CBS Austin reported that a 7-Eleven employee told police a man had punched a customer in the parking lot before tackling the man and smashing his head on the concrete.

About 45 minutes later, police received another call from witnesses reporting a man fitting the same description now at a bus stop ‘eating’ another man’s face.

‘One of the males was unresponsive and bleeding from the head,’ the police said.

The victim, identified by the broadcaster as Kenneth, was taken to hospital having sustained a large cut to his face and missing an eye and an ear.

‘He was later pronounced deceased by medical personnel,’ the police added.

Officers found Czech with ‘biological matter in his hair, mouth and on his clothing’, according to arrest documents obtained by CBS affiliate KLAS.

Czech was taken into custody at the Clark County Detention centre on an open murder charge at 5.57am.

He claimed he was homeless, had been awake for ‘five days straight’ because he was ‘possessed’ and that Kenneth had attacked him.

He used his ‘teeth to eat [Kenneth’s] eyeballs and ears’, he told detectives, the documents said.

Appearing today at Las Vegas Justice Court this morning, Czech’s lawyer told Judge Amy Chelinin that he believes Czech is incompetent to stand trial.

Chief Deputy Public Defender David Westbrook said he intends to request a medical examination for Czech.

He told the court: ‘I’ve spoken to him, and I’ve determined that he is incompetent.’

He had failed to appear in court on Monday.
